Doesn't look like it.


Are you guys talking about the iPhone 7, because if Apple does eliminate the headphone jack, they're replacing it with the Lightning port, and the phone will still come with wired earpods.

Great, yet another iPhone only set of aftermarket items.

Yep, there's already been a big uproar over this.

I thought the rumor was it would come with bluetooth earpods. Or maybe they're just going to sell them separately? I guess that would make more sense.

I read something else about 15ft wireless charging. That's something to look forward to.

There have been lots of rumors. I can't imagine them supplying wireless headphones as standard at this point in time, because they're such an obvious upgrade over stock and they want to get some mileage out of Beats, they're less convenient because they have to be charged, etc. OTOH, I'm maybe 80% convinced they're deleting the headphone jack and going with Lightning for wired earpods, which of course means all "native" headphones will need a built-in DAC and amps, while "legacy" cans will require an adapter to provide those functions.
